That Time DX Were So Hated WWF Fans RIOTED House Show
The trauma, chaos and carnage of 1997 stands in direct contrast with Vince McMahon's organisation in 2018, particularly their virtually impenetrable public perception.
Though only a story of one night gone incredibly bad for WWE, it's a cautionary tale 20 years on. Should such an event happen today, the instant reactions via drunken videos posted on Twitter would make for sobering viewing. Shawn Michaels' spiritual reawakening in 2002 removed the likelihood of such a thing ever happening again - few performers would have had the gall (and to a certain extent, guts) to stand up to both a crowd and McMahon himself for making such a bold decision, regardless of the rowdiness. Their jobs as WWE Superstars depend as much on protecting the image of the company as they do protecting themselves.
Even 'HBK' himself - should he take what must be an eye-wateringly large amount of money to return - would be too well behaved to ever trigger such a scene.
For better and worse, nobody will have the power to stop a show again, not even a Hall Of Famer with that very act in his nickname.
